Morning choochoo

So, I got up after the girls had been up for a bit and John had already gone to work- not very long after he left, but apparently long enough. He was kind enough to give them their milk and some O's with raisins to keep them happy until I was done nursing Isaiah and ready to get up. I walked into the kitchen and this is what I see (I considered taking a picture, but, of course, my memory card is full): Every chair from the kitchen is lined up along with numerous push toys to make a choo-choo train through the kitchen, there is water, cheerios and raisins all over the floor surrounding a box of chicken broth, the fridge door is wide open with one of the fridge door shelves on the ground and all of it's contents (except for the chicken broth) are shoved onto the lowest shelf of the open fridge. Oh, and there is a baby doll stroller on top of the kitchen table. Oi! Seriously, this is what 2 little girls are capable in a matter of a few minutes. I am taking all of this in as Naomi continuously says "Sowee mommy, sowee mommy" and Jadie Ruth is professing her utter innocence. Keep in mind that Jadie Ruth is the only one of the 2 of them that is strong enough to actually open the refrigerator- innocent, I think not! Really, I had just a flash of astonishment and then got to cleaning up. Jadie Ruth got sent to get dressed and Naomi to the chair of time out. I don't get that mad about things like this because they were having a good time and admittedly I was not there to tell them no. They had gotten out their small mop and broom in attempts to clean it up themsleves, but clearly that didn't work out. Those of you who know me know that I am fairly strict with my kids and I don't want this story to sound like I just let them do whatever they want- that is definitely not the case around here, but they do have great imaginations and it's fun to see what they do when left to their own devises. In the end, no one got hurt, they sincerely apologized and understand that they are not allowed to get anywhere NEAR the fridge anymore. SO, there's my morning so far and we've only been up for an hour. Now, off to get ready and take the kids yardsaling.....yes, I am insane. But, that's why you read this, right?
